Reflection of Qualitative Methods: “memoring” fieldwork experience in organisational research with photographs

The paper is a reflection on the use of photographs in multiple case study research. It explores the crossovers between interpreting visual artefacts, the qualitative approach to case study research in organisations, and the move from cases to theory guided by the grounded theory tenets. The paper proposes an additional use of photographs as a visual method to those in the literature, as a device for data analysis. Photograph-based analysis techniques are explored, using e sequence of individual images and photo collages on case data, moving from interpretation of single to multiple case themes. This makes the case of using photograph analysis as an interpretation device for case research to illuminate theory development.

Citizen safety at local level: fieldwork notes on performance and perception of the ‘Quadrant Plan’ in Cali (Colombia)

This article summarizes field notes related to the study of the actions performed by the Metropolitan Police of Santiago de Cali in the context of its ‘Plan Cuadrante’ (a micro-local security action plan) and the citizen’s perception towards it. Taking an ethnographic approach, it places special emphasis on the actions that imply identifying the main criminal and violent actors and activities. The study focuses on four local districts of the city: El Cortijo, Mariano Ramos, Terrón Colorado y Villa del Lago.

New approaches to fieldwork.

Pretende conseguir dos propósitos fundamentales, el primero de ellos es favorecer una mayor reflexión y un debate fundado sobre cómo se lleva a cabo el trabajo de campo en las escuelas secundarias; y el otro, es presentar una serie de técnicas cualitativas y experienciales que puedan utilizarse en el trabajo de campo de estas escuelas.
